Best Robot Cleaners

The Roomba j7+ from iRobot combo robot vacuums and mops, and has a self-emptying, washable dock. It also has excellent mapping capabilities, but it had trouble identifying objects in our tests, such as mistaking a BBQ spill as Poop.

The navigation system is simple to use and includes features such as no-go zones. Its suction power keeps hardwood flooring sparkling and low-pile carpets looking fresh.

Shark IQ

Shark IQ is among the best robot cleaners, with advanced features and smart functions without breaking the bank.

It comes with a simple interface and often comes with voice control. The initial setup is simple and quick, and you can modify your cleaning schedule and track every cycle using the mobile app.

In our tests, we observed that the Shark IQ worked well on all surfaces. It also cleaned pet hair efficiently. However, it had trouble with carpets that had high and low piles. It also had difficulty getting around certain areas, moving in an zig-zag pattern before adhering to the walls of a room. Its navigation system could be improved however, overall the IQ did an excellent job of removing debris and was better than the ION robot in all respects.

The IQ is compatible with the Shark mopping system, which eliminates the requirement for replacement bags. It also has a shorter time to recharge and comes with a greater array of automation features than the iRobot Roomba j7+. In addition to the standard features, the IQ features an intelligent-pathing navigation system as well as boundary makers that allow you to restrict specific areas of your home.

The Shark IQ can also detect obstacles and adjust its route accordingly. This stops it from navigating the same area repeatedly and can identify obstacles like chair legs or areas that are cluttered. It also has an UltraClean mode, which doubles suction and employs a the crosshatch design to get into the most filthy areas.

You can also create "no-go zones" on the IQ map by dragging boxes into the areas you'd like to stay clear of. This feature isn't as precise as LIDAR mapping, but it is still beneficial in preventing the robot from getting lost or accidentally turning around. The app allows you to select the power level and vacuuming method, as well as set a cleaning schedule.
